NEW ORLEANS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kahn Swick & Foti, LLC ("KSF") and KSF partner, former Attorney General
of Louisiana, Charles C. Foti, Jr., remind investors that they have until
February 21, 2017 to file lead plaintiff applications in a
securities class action lawsuit against Universal Health Services, Inc.
(NYSE: UHS), if they purchased the Company’s shares between February 26,

What You May Do

If you purchased shares of Universal Health and would like to discuss
your legal rights and how this case might affect you and your right to
recover for your economic loss, you may, without obligation or cost to
you, call toll-free at 1-877-515-1850 or email KSF Managing Partner
Lewis Kahn (lewis.kahn@ksfcounsel.com).
If you wish to serve as a lead plaintiff in this class action, you must

The alleged false and misleading statements and omissions include, but
are not limited to: (i) Universal Health admitted patients on its own
financial considerations and not upon medical necessity; (ii) Universal
Health kept patients admitted until their insurance payments ceased to
ensure the maximum payment for services; (iii) as a result, Universal
Health’s revenues from inpatient care relied on unsustainable practices;
(iv) Universal Health lacked effective internal control concerning its
practices and policies of admitting patients. Therefore, Universal
Health’s public statements were materially false and misleading at all
relevant times.
